Cleveland 588 RTX CB Satin Chrome Wedge

Thanks to more precise manufacturing, Cleveland Golf has been able to make the Tour Zip Grooves on new 588 RTX wedges 16% larger than previous Tour Zip Grooves. These U-shaped grooves have been proven to channel away the most moisture and debris in the widest variety of course conditions (in accordance with USGA regulations). Now that these grooves are 16% larger, their ability to increase friction and generate spin from the rough, sand, and fairway is even stronger.

Rotex Face Pattern and Laser Milled Technology

Cleveland Golf's proprietary Laser Milled technology increases surface roughness with four perfectly calibrated texture lines milled between each groove. But this only adds roughness in a uniform pattern, as shown in the graph above: The new 588 RTX wedges feature the new Rotex Face Pattern, a 3-inch circular pattern that is CNC milled across the entire clubface. By itself, it also increases surface roughness: When combined, the Rotex Face Pattern and Laser Milled technology create more surface roughness than any Cleveland Golf wedge ever: This unprecedented combination of surface roughness technologies provides more friction, helping generate more spin in the widest variety of conditions.
